Abstract

This study investigates empirically the relationship between the market value (measured by Tobin´s q coefficient) and voluntary disclosure of economic, social and environmental information by companies listed on the BM&FBovespa from 2007 to 2011. The results indicate a significant positive relationship between economic voluntary disclosure and the market value of firms, as well as, a significant negative relationship between the market value and environmental voluntary disclosure, suggesting a tradeoff between the view of the investor and manager. Concerning social voluntary disclosure, the results did not indicate significant relationship.

Keywords: Market value; Voluntary disclosure; Corporate Social Responsibility.
